About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos, missing text or index. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. 1894. Not illustrated. Excerpt: ... At length he came in the South Channell, betweene the lle Salisbury and the South Maine, sayling in between C. Wostenholme and Sir Dudley Diggs his He, to the West end thereof, where he saith is a banke of Owes1 to anchor upon, at 13 fathom. C.

And here it was where the villaines Greene and Juef3 were slaine, after they had exposed Master Hudson. This is Sir Dudley Diggs his He, and there is Deare within the same. Hee passed from hence to a Cape on the N. side of his Bayes entrance,4 which he named Cary's Swans nest, and 1 That is ooze, or soft mud.--C. 2 Black Guillemots or Dovekies (see p. 107).--C. 3 There is an error here. Green, Wilson, Thomas, and Pierce had lost their lives at this spot in the previous year, but Juet, it will be remembered, had died afterwards, on the voyage home, apparently of starvation (see p. 157).--C. 4 That is, the entrance to Button's Bay; for, long after Button's voyage, a large part of the bay we now know ...
